NSW Department of Communities and Justice / Evaluation of Roll Out of Triple P through Families NSW - CD09/01

Communities Division, within the Department of Community Services (DoCS), is responsible for the strategic coordination and leadership of the Families NSW.

Communities Division has been allocated $5.2 million over four years to roll-out Triple P (Positive Parenting Program) as part of the broader Families NSW Strategy. The roll-out of Triple P is part of the NSW Government’s 2007 election commitment to support NSW families. The aim of this initiative is to provide all parents with children aged 3-8 years to have the opportunity to access broad focused parenting information and support.

Funding has been allocated to evaluate the roll out as part of this initiative

The Triple P-Positive Parenting Program® is a multilevel, parenting and family support strategy developed by Professor Matthew Sanders and colleagues at The University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia. Triple P aims to prevent severe behavioural, emotional and developmental problems in children by enhancing the knowledge, skills, and confidence of parents. It incorporates five levels of intervention on a tiered continuum of increasing strength for parents of children from birth to age 16.
